How to prevent from "SUPERSEDED by a higher-priority channel"

Question

While installing tensorflow on M1 Max,

conda install -c apple tensorflow-deps

This message always shows up:

The following packages will be SUPERSEDED by a higher-priority channel:

  numpy                      pypi/pypi::numpy-1.21.4-pypi_0 --> conda-forge/osx-arm64::numpy-1.19.5-py39h1f3b974_2

But for some reason, I have to keep numpy installed by pip, not from conda-forge channel.

I've already set pip_interop_enabled=True. Methods I've tried (but none of them worked):

• Specify the pinned packages:

  echo "numpy=1.21.4=pypi*" >> ~/miniforge3/envs/this_env/conda-meta/pinned
  

  but it will be ignored, reporting conflict with pinned:

  $ conda install -c apple tensorflow-deps
  Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done
  Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve.
  Solving environment: failed with repodata from current_repodata.json, will retry with next repodata source.
  Collecting package metadata (repodata.json): done
  Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve.
  Solving environment: failed
  
  SpecsConfigurationConflictError: Requested specs conflict with configured specs.
    requested specs: 
      - tensorflow-deps
    pinned specs: 
      - numpy==1.21.4[build=pypi*]
  

• Specify no update and no channel priority:

  conda install -c apple tensorflow-deps --no-update-deps --no-channel-priority
  

  but still doesn't work:

  The following packages will be SUPERSEDED by a higher-priority channel: ...
  

Could anyone please give a solution? Except for tensorflow, I want to manually lock my numpy from any change in further conda install or conda update.
